There are a variety of uses and reasons why someone would purchase shipping or storage containers. Here are eight of them from the folks at LGI Transport, which has a plethora of storage containers for sale.
- Storage Space – Investing in a storage container allows you to have immediate storage space without having to worry about building a unit.
- Long-Lasting – The sea life of shipping containers is around 12-15 years, but they can last a lot longer if properly maintained. There is a nice investment return on purchasing a storage container as opposed to renting one or building a wooden or concrete structure.
- Security – Steel shipping containers don’t have a point of entry or any windows and possess heavy duty cams, which lock the doors securely shut. A bolt on lock box can be added to the container to secure it even further.
- Versatility – Once your shipping container is paid for, other accommodations can be made to improve the versatility of it. Walls and shelves can be installed to create different rooms and refine organization.
- Moving – Storage containers are used for people moving to another state. The 20-foot containers store all items for a 2-3 bedroom home, while the 40-foot containers stores belongings for 4-5 bedroom houses.
- Heating Up – For items that are temperature sensitive, a reefer container may be purchased to keep them cool during the middle of the summer.
- Durability – Steel shipping containers are built to withstand moisture, weight and salt.
- Other Uses – Because they are so cheap, shipping containers are ideal for construction. They are also readily available and finding one for a project is very easy.
